Skype on Mac 10.4 won't work.

[alexander123]

New to skype. downloaded application. When I click on the icon a box comes up saying "you cannot open the application because it is not supported on this system"

I'm working on a powerbookG4 running 10.4 - can anyone advise? do I need an oloder version of skype?

Hi,

On your Mac G4 OS 10.4, an older version is needed, indeed.

Downloadable from here : http://is.gd/QwiTOv

Btw, do not forget to disable 'automatic checking for updates' preference.

I recently bought a MacBook Air, with Mac OS X Version 10.7.2.  This is the first time I have tried using Skype on a Mac--a pc user for many year until now.  I logged in to my Skype account from the Skype website but am unable to view my contacts list or make a call (I have $4+change in credit).  Please help!

Maybe this is stating the obvious, but you will not find your contacts when you're online in your Skype account on the website. This you do by launching the actual Skype application, which I must assume you've downloaded (a .dmg file).
